Drew walls making all his target run vids have Drake songs already taking effect
So sad this was not first page lmaoooo
He’s right
Just here to say Mos Def is a greater rapper than Drake could ever hope to be before his demented stans come in here to start narratives
Bait is piping today, gj
Niggas really rewriting Weezy history itt, just to reinforce a point another person making. KTT really shameless sometimes.
it doesn’t matter what type of music wayne could ever make they’d never call him pop
and he never was either but still
I brought the archive up because those were sentiments from a local level.
Can't tell me nothing was made from the sentiment that he wasn't really hip hop and didn't have a street single.
Obviously the convo is bigger with drake, but the same idea still persist in that they were viewed as Pop because their image of being outsiders
Fair enough, I just tend to think the huge purist co sign that Ye had easily overshadowed any of that talk. The backpackers and people who generally have those convos mostly loved Ye because it wasn’t 50

Almost every bar on scary hours 3 is better than anything on no fear of time from yasiin but then his peppas verse is better than anything drake has ever recorded so idk
how to love is ultimate pop. he put out a whole rock album. wayne is my goat so i'm not surprised at the notion
Forgot about rebirth
But yeah even all the pop features he was doing like let it rock and down with Jay Sean, that was def his pop era

Let's not
Drake really been an overall net negative for rap and is leading the genre to its death
It’s true but then Wayne gets some blame too
Let's not
Let’s not what? Be realistic about how he phoned in black star 2?
Imagine you shopping at target and you hear “And definitely do not shoot his ass until you get permission”
From the beginning rap was fairly commercialized and they were trying to sell to as many people as possible.
I would say Drake is a student of the game and cares deeply about the culture
remember I said intent is a factor. The intent behind rap wasn’t the commercialization of it, it became commercial obviously but it was cultural based
There’s the five pillars & community was a huge part of it
That was the early bases of Hip Hop, it’s not just rapping. Although some of those activities aren’t seen anymore in the average rapper, some artist care the overall spirit more than others

Lmaooo yooo
And drake is probably all over those too. Idk I’ve heard fire and desire on radio but maybe it’s bigger where I’m from
The point that I’m making is that Mos was being a big hater and there’s maybe like 3 or 4 songs that would actually ever play in Target and they really don’t get played all that much there and Drake 100% is hip-hop whether he does s*** elsewhere or not.

"shopping with an edge"
Now that I think of it, not even kendrick or cole drop raps songs with no hooks like drake does

Would you say Chief Keef was hip hop when he came out?
You never heard Tuscan Leather in Target?
It haunts me every time I’m tryna cop my goodwell tee’s

There's several songs with no hooks on morale

lol
As a big Drake fan, I get and agree with what he's saying
For the past few years it absolutely feels like it's all about the numbers and commercial viability to him and not any artistic merit, unfortunately
Wish it wasn't like that, but, IMO, it is
